June continues with more new music I’ve been involved with being released, this time from composer and arranger Tom Haines.

Tom has been working on composing and arranging for big bands for quite a few years now and this release marks the end of Kickstarter funded project to help make this album possible. The Birmingham Jazz Orchestra, featuring many of the familiar faces of the Birmingham scene, performed two sets of music live in the main hall at the Stratford Arts House to support the 30th anniversary celebrations of Stratford Jazz. An evening filled with occasion was capped off by the live recording of this performance of Tom’s music to be released on CD.
